John Mackey
The way up to the top of the mountain is always longer than you think. Don’t fool yourself, the moment will arrive when what seemed so near is still very far
Paulo Coelho
Those who travel to mountain-tops are half in love with themselves, and half in love with oblivion
Robert Macfarlane
Great things are done when men and mountains meet
William Blake
